Tonio & Julia

The pastor and the therapist – Tonio and Julia's work together at the family counselling center is going from strength to strength. But the Amin family presents them both with big challenges.

Kati Amin is suffering from the consequences of a stroke. Her 12-year-old son Henry is reacting aggressively to his mother. Her husband Yunus now has to run their IT company on his own. Meanwhile, he is also desperately trying to hold the family together. Yunus Amin turns to Julia. His wife Kati isn't only having problems as a result of her physical disabilities – father and son are particularly burdened by the personality change she has undergone. She is cold and dismissive towards them, so that Henry in particular feels rejected.

More and more people are now coming to Tonio and Julia's counseling center. But at this very moment Tonio gets an attractive offer to head up the seminary in Munich.

Tonio is facing a dilemma, which Julia is initially quite unaware of. In the meantime, she counsels Heike Sager, who would like to start her own business, but her husband Michael is blocking her every move, even though they have an agreement regarding this.

Priest Tonio and therapist Julia are keeping their distance from one another, but Tanja Clemens needs their help. At the age of 28, her grown-up son Andi still can't stand on his own two feet, and now he has moved back in with her. Tanja had actually just redecorated her home and settled into her life, but doesn't she have to be there for her son first? Tonio arranges a job for Andi, but Julia thinks that is a mistake.

After a minor rear-end collision, Hanna Stegmeyer finds herself in Tonio and Julia's counseling center, completely distraught. She is obviously very afraid of the reaction she knows will come from her husband, the successful Dr. Joachim Stegmeyer. Who, as it turns out, is also the boss of Julia's new boyfriend, Dr. Felix Born. This is a delicate situation for Julia, because Dr. Stegmeyer has made his wife completely and systematically dependent on him.
